I also have a sweet old Marlin Model 88 semi-auto 22 caliber rifle. Its my "yard gun". Many a squirrel and possum have met their demise from that old gun. I have been pulling the trigger on that one since I was 10 years old. First gun my Grandpa ever gave me.
Marlin guns are well made and if you just take care of them, they last forever!
